A Public Service Announcement

Archive: 11 posts


Alright, for one, I realize I'm not the forum saint, but I feel this needs to be said. Two, I'm not sure if this goes here.

Browsing over the forums in the midst of this pre-release hype, I'm noticing something odd, something very out of place for this community. Even more out of place considering it's in the eve what should be a very joyous milestone for us LBP fans.

Recent discussions relating to the game have often spiraled, sometimes largely and sometimes with barely any effect, into very dark territory. And what I mean by that is a lot of negative emotion. Several incidents, and you guys know what I'm talking about, have illustrated this with graphic vivacity.

And of course, if we have a problem with something, it's perfectly okay to say it. But it's been going beyond that, to the point where there's a lot of resentment between users. Guys, look up. Do you see that banner? No matter which random one you got, it's likely to be inhabited by bright colors, wacky art design and little smiling stuffed humanoids who can always spare a smile or two. Look at the site design. White, purple, blue, yellow, vibrant colors exuding happiness. Have you guys played LittleBigPlanet? The game is practically made of sugar and spice and everything nice. Look at the staff. The site is managed by an 17-year old and the moderators a wacky bunch who'd you'd half-expect to see starring in a sitcom. Look at my post, now at the title of the website, now back to the post. The post is now diamonds and that is something magical.

Basically, this boils downs to a plead of Let's all get along together. In 4 days the game we've all been looking forward too is going to come out and it will be filled with happiness and love and emotion and creative power never before witnessed. If you reply to this thread, I do hope you bring along something which can put us all in good spirits.

It's not anyone in particular, just some things which have been popping up around the release of LBP2 that have made LBPC's Happy Gadders a bit less and bit more

I didn't really notice anything bad going down, but huzzah to good times anyways!

In the meantime, listen to some cheerful LittleBigPlanet music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6XWI3Ff4-w
